12-Hydroxylauric Acid is used in the structural and functional characterization of S-nitrosoglutathione reductase from Solanum lycopersicum.
Definition
ChEBI: 12-hydroxylauric acid is a medium-chain fatty acid that is the 12-hydroxylated derivative of lauric acid. It has a role as a human metabolite. It is functionally related to a dodecanoic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 12-hydroxylaurate.
Purification Methods
Crystallise the acid from toluene [Sadowik et al. J Am Chem Soc 108 7789 1986]. [Beilstein 3 III 658.]
